Well I'm sure its something that can be googled, what your elevation is. mine could be lower for all i know. I once flew a Cessna 172 and we were roughly 1000 ft above ground and i thought 2000 ft or so above sea level. This was a while ago.


just checked and i am...902 ft above sea level in my suburb. and it can range in the northern portion of the twin cities but it gets up to nearly 1400 and as low as 700 or so. it can range but that 600 is far from me. I'm in the 900-1400 range. so nothing ridiculous but its up there.

I love how moparman knows how high he is just like that lol!!!

Yeah... My elevation where I'm at now is 44 feet LOL. Where I just moved from is 648 feet so pretty dramatic change.

Oh ok Moparman, I was gonna say you're pretty good with your local geographic's. lol

And widow that is a big jump. from what you say, your durango should be performing its best or close to best at that low of sea level. go clock your 0-60 than do it again if and when you're back up in Tennessee??

Yeah I think I will. To be honest it feels like it's got more giddy up down here in Florida. It also doesn't have the problem I had with the door locks sticking (probably frozen) and my O2 sensor problems fixed their selves.

It`s not hard to pull those numbers if engine and all componts are at peak performance , i get 15/16 in town and 20/21 on the hwy with mt 6.3L

01 6.3, im not trying to be an *** here, but you are another durango which is a special case, you have a very well built up truck which will run differently than most, making your personal numbers irrelevant to the discussion of stock vehicle efficiency, and with the STOCK 5.9 the best i have heard fromt hat engine before widow was 15 or 16 highway, its such a big thirsty engine, even maintained, that those numbers are hard to believe (im sure he has some basic work done to it, but nothing serious, in most peoples cases their engines would not qualify as modded, simple cai, exhaust ect, do not make much of a difference)
